The Real United Nations: An Interactive Briefing Series for Model Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµs

Samuel Martell (Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Department of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs), Brenden Varma (Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Department of Global Communications) and Edem Wosornu (Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs) at a ¡°Real Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ¡± briefing at New York University.

 

Across the globe, Model Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ simulations are popular ways for students to learn more about the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ. However, they tend to focus solely on the intergovernmental process. That is why ¡°The Real United Nations: An Interactive Briefing Series for Model Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµs¡± was launched. The idea is for diverse panels of Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ staff and diplomats to speak to Model Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ clubs, share their stories with participants and explain what they actually do to achieve Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ mandates.

During these exchanges, students can ask real Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ staff and diplomats, working in such fields as political affairs, humanitarian aid, sustainable development and communications, about their experience working at Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Headquarters and field offices. The conversations are meant to be frank ¨C so that students can gain a real understanding of what actually goes on in the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ¡¯s halls and missions.
